Shots Fired As EFCC Breaks Into Okorocha’s Home by ExAngel007(f): 6:38pm On May 24, 2022
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has broken into the residence of Senator Rochas Okorocha in Abuja after gunshots were heard in the vicinity.

It is not yet clear if anyone was injured from the shots. The EFCC insisted that journalists must leave the premises, forcefully ejecting everyone in the residence.

A Channels Television cameraman, Kabiru Owoyemi, was among those brutalised during the clearance. He was hit with a gun on the neck.

‘Left with no option’

The EFCC had arrived Okorocha’s residence in Maitama to effect his arrest on Tuesday.

According to the agency, Okorocha had refused to “honour
invitations after jumping the administrative bail earlier granted him by the Commission.”

But Okorocha, who is running for President under the platform of the All Progressives Congress, accused the agency of holding him hostage in his own home.

Speaking exclusively to Channels Television, he also asked the EFCC to produce an arrest warrant.

The EFCC had on January 24, 2022 filed a 17-count criminal charge bordering on diversion of public funds and properties to the tune of N2.9billion against Okorocha.

The case was assigned to Honourable Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja but attempts to arraign Senator Okorocha were twice stalled owing to the absence of the ex-governor who evaded service of processes.

At the last adjourned date, March 28th, 2022, Justice Ekwo before adjourning until May 30th, 2022, had warned that it was “the last adjournment I shall grant in this matter”.

According to the EFCC, it was “left with no option than to effect the arrest of Senator Okorocha and bring him to trial.”

HIS OFFENCE AND ALLEGATION MOUNTS.

Avoiding and stalling trial and now, RESISTING arrest.

AN ABSURD GRANDSTANDING WHEN HE SHOULD JUST HAVE HONOURED THE INVITATION AND CLEARED HIS NAME.

Senseless all the way and to imagine that he wants to be president of Nigeria. Most unworthy with the kind of brigandage in purview.

Why?

He's currently cooling off in EFCC's custody and there's nothing you can do about it

Most disgraceful, when he should have been a gentleman and submit to legal authority. He would have been a lawless president with DISREGARD for the RULE OF LAW and encourage citizens along that resort, perhaps.
